The United States has rejected Iran’s latest series of diplomatic proposals as “not really responsive” and several top lawmakers have said they are very anxious to add to harsh sanctions against the nation over it’s nuclear program.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, on the other hand, said the proposals were something to work with. He added that the proposal at least showed Iran’s willingness to enter into a comprehensive discussion and said some of the points could be the basis for a broader deal.
The Western push for sanctions to punish Iran for refusing to abandon its civilian uranium enrichment, however, has taken a serious hit as Russia says that it will now oppose any additional sanctions. Russia is involved in the construction of the Bushehr nuclear power plant, which requires the enriched uranium.
The IAEA’s recent report notes there are still some questions that remain, but once again confirmed that none of the enriched uranium is being diverted to any military purpose. The US has speculated, however, that it might be someday.
Another riduculous push by the war machine of Amerika to provoke and isolate the Iranian regime. Iran has the right to nuclear energy, they are a part of the NPT, the IAEA has inspected and cleared Iran of so-called nuclear ambitions, Amerika's own intelligence agency issued a report stating that Iran has no weapons programme, and Islam prohibits nuclear weapons which the supreme Ayatollah has iterated time and agin…Yet, Israel is punishing Palestinians, occupying foreign land, uses illegal munitions during wartime, detains, unlawfully, thousands of Palestinians without proper representation and ships Palestinians from occupied territory to their own soil, another illegal maneuvre under the Geneva conventions, has not signed on to the NPT and has proliferated 200-300 nuclear weapons…So, where should we turn our attention towards??
Wether or not Iran has nuke weapon program is really besides the point and doesn't really concern DC that much anyway. The US just wants a pretext to keep hostilities against Iran at a low boil until the time is right to launch another war. We saw this with Iraq for 10 years.
It would be a bonus to DC if Iran had a nuke weapons program but they really don't care one way or the other.
